40 Financial statement analysis Solvency 2.2. Solvability The prudent use of debt is a major part of intelligent financial management. Debt financing is more attractive than equity financing because: Interest payments are deductible for income tax purposes, but dividends are not deductible. The ownership rights to voting and profits are kept by the present shareholders. using borrowed money at fixed interest rates might enhance the rate of return on common equity (= financial leverage, trading on the equity)

Industries with higher gross profit percentages tend to have the lowest inventory turnover.
